"Slow" Britt has averaged more yards per catch than Givens in both 2014 and 2015.
Britt has been getting open deep all year. You're incorrect. It's the only thing he does well.
Tavon has also been getting separation deep when we send him deep.
I don't know why people are complaining about trading Givens. It's like complaining about letting Daryl Richardson go.
Grass is always greener mentality. It's why some Rams fans were clamoring for Brandon Gibson to be back ever time he made the occasion okay catch for the 'Phins. Their mediocrity looks better now that it's far away and not in our face anymore. Now Givens catching the occasion deep ball is exciting and wowing and the only thing he does now that we no longer have to watch him not get open ever the other 15 games. They still suck, but because we're not being forced to watch their constant suck with their occasional okay play it's much easier to idealize their play.
He's number two on a team begging for somebody to stand out with all their better WRs on the IR and he's on pace to his second worst receiving season, but he's great no?
Our regime has made plenty of mistakes, there's absolutely no reason to make up ones that simply aren't there. Chris Givens is not a great player, end of story.
